Summer Survival Tip#1

So summer is officially here and it feels so good to see the sun shining and enjoy relaxing summer days. However, if you are a work from home Mom it also means that your children are home from school and you now need to do some negotiating and rearranging a bit to get your work done and keep the kiddos happy.

Last year I discovered this great tip that helped my summer go a lot smoother!

We do not have our own pool but our town does have a wonderful one available to use with the purchase of a season pass, and let me tell you it was worth every penny!! I’m able to work in the morning and if the boys are good I take them to the pool in the afternoon, it’s a great incentive for good behavior and it gives us all something to look forward to! And because there are lifeguards on duty if I need to make a quick call or finish up something I can do that while I sit by and watch them.

Even if your town doesn’t have a great pool like ours, the bigger tip here is to check with your local Parks & Recs department (or Town Library) they often offer many low cost or free activities that you and your children can participate in and enjoy.

See you at the pool!

Great tip Melissa! In fact, I have 45 minutes left in my workday before the kids are having friends over for a pool party this afternoon. They have learned that if I get my 4 hours in the morning to do what needs to be done, they get my attention for the afternoon. 🙂Louann Cormier recently posted..Balancing a business and family
